Gastrointestinal (GI) Hemorrhage is a critical medical condition marked by bleeding within the digestive system, which can occur at any point along the alimentary tract. It can be caused by factors such as peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or excessive use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Early detection is crucial to prevent morbidity and mortality, but existing diagnostic modalities, including endoscopy and imaging studies, are invasive, costly, and uncomfortable for patients. This project proposes a non-invasive diagnostic system utilizing bioimpedance spectroscopy to detect GI hemorrhage. The system involves placing surface electrodes on the abdominal wall, where a small alternating current (AC) signal is used to measure tissue impedance. The presence of blood in the GI tract alters the impedance characteristics, which are detected by the impedance sensor and processed in real-time using a microcontroller-based unit, such as Arduino. he designs ensures rapid, painless, and accurate detection without the need for hospitalization. The proposed system aims to improve patient outcomes by offering a user-friendly, portable, and cost-effective solution for early diagnosis. It is especially beneficial in home-care settings and for patients who require frequent monitoring. Future developments include integrating artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance diagnostic accuracy and expanding the system's application to detect other gastrointestinal disorders non-invasively. SMART Medical Diagnostic is changing the way we detect gastrointestinal bleeding by using a simple, non-invasive method. With impedance sensor technology, it quickly and safely finds internal bleeding without the need for uncomfortable procedures. This new approach gives doctors accurate results in real-time, making diagnosis faster and easier for patients. SMART Medical Diagnostic is the future of gastrointestinal care--smart, simple, and patient-friendly.
